Eleven British divers are Antalya-bound for the 2025 European Aquatic Diving Championships, with 13 continental titles set to be decided across 22nd-28th May in the coastal Turkish city.
Ahead of June’s Aquatics GB Diving Championships, an 11-strong team of British divers will test themselves against top-level competition on the European Championships stage later this month in Antalya, Turkey.
Desharne Bent-Ashmeil’s hat-trick of golds from the 3m springboard in 2024 – securing victories with Amy Rollinson and Ben Cutmore in the synchro events – in addition to Robbie Lee’s Men’s 10m Platform triumph helped Great Britain seal top spot on the European medal table last year, and the four British reigning European champions will no doubt have their ambitions set on chasing further continental silverware.
Kyle Kothari steps back into the international arena for the first time since reaching the Men’s 10m Platform final of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, with his focus primarily this year on synchro events, while there is a first senior team selection for Hannah Newbrook, Noah Penman and Robbie Wood – with each one having achieved medal success at international junior events in recent years.
Returning to the European senior team for consecutive editions of competition is Men’s 3m Springboard bronze medallist, Matthew Dixon, alongside Leon Baker and Hugo Thomas - with a primary focus for the British team being about continuing the build through the next Olympic cycle into the 2028 Los Angeles Games and Brisbane 2032 beyond that.
The diving programme in Antalya runs from 22nd-28th May, with the Mixed Team Event opening proceedings on Thursday 22nd May. The Women's Platform Synchro and Men's 3m Springboard finals close the event on Wednesday 28th May.
Full schedule and results can be found through the European Aquatics website, with streaming details still to be confirmed.
